Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Hage' | Hage Hinoki Cypress

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Chamaecyparis obtusa ‘Hage’ is a miniature Hinoki cypress valued for its dense presence in the garden. This dwarf evergreen forms a compact, globose mound with twisted, fan-shaped sprays of dark to bright green foliage that add layered texture year-round. In colder climates, the foliage can show soft bronze tones in winter, and the crushed sprays release a resinous fragrance.

Native to Japan, Hinoki cypress has long been used for traditional temple building, and ‘Hage’ originated as a 1928 seedling selection at William C. Hage & Company Nursery in Boskoop, Netherlands. Pollen and seed cones develop in spring, marking its blooming season, while slow inch-per-year growth makes it well-suited to rock gardens, troughs, and containers.
